We recently exhibited a conference and took along a selection of our gorgeous wooden toys and educational aids, and thought it would be useful to give some feedback on the most popular products among the educational specialists:-
Play Bench Ballino
A beautiful wooden toy with 4 different activities on each side encouraging all types of ball movement. With a loop of eight to roll the ball along, a rattle track to send the balls along and a ball guide track where the balls drops through a hole in the end. The fourth side has three holes where children need to knock the three balls through. When each ball drops through, a little bell rings.
Children send the three balls down the ball track and are rewarded with stimiulating features such as little bells.
A very simple but wonderful wooden stacking toy. With six coloured stacking discs of varying size, from 4 to 10 cm Ø. Also aids colour recognition and concept of sizes.

A beautiful take on the classic Shape Sorter toy. Each of the coloured shaped block has an acoustic and optical element to stimulate. Comes with 8 discovery blocks. The sorter is simple to open and access and the two panels can also be removed if required, increasing the versatility as an educational and teaching aid.
